 * EDIT: I came back to update my review of Gutenberg. It’s still terrible.
 * Breaks many existing sites that are on auto-update, and not easy to disable. 
   It should NOT be the default editor. Did not have enough beta testing as it was
   released into production without any real world user testing. Classic example
   where developer hubris can trump common sense.

      Reason: still bad

 * Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback! The Gutenberg team has been
   running regular [usability tests](https://make.wordpress.org/test/tag/usability-testing/),
   in addition to reading plugin reviews and triaging issues filed in Github.
 * You can always disable Gutenberg by using the [Classic Editor](https://wordpress.org/plugins/classic-editor/)
   plugin if you need to. If there’s some specific feedback you’d like to share 
   about what isn’t working and what’s broken, we’d love to hear it!
